Episode 6: Friendship, Pizza & Rejection
In this episode, we return after taking a much-needed pause to soak in a weekend of family, sunshine, and grandkid chaos during a staycation in Clearwater. From there, we dive into a powerful week of emotional highs and lows — starting with a heartwarming lunch with lifelong friends, a major medical consult at Memorial Sloan Kettering, and the emotional decision from a clinical trial at Moffitt.
You’ll also hear about an unexpected visit that stopped Steve in his tracks — and brought a lifetime of memories rushing back. Through it all, this episode is about showing up: for each other, for yourself, and for the moments that matter most.
